§.2 Impropriety of Grants for joint lives resulting from determinable at pleasure
Un joint life and grants been under
only at pleasure

Better late than never but to obviate the rep of
inconsistency - to give colour facility to that charity which
& such a change would assign some better cause than a change
of party interest something to the th of a measure another
in the way of paternity should have been . Not bble
and how powder but and much the custom
in what a push against sinecures should have been altered by the afordable prof
of not of
a system of grants
for joint lives
able not pleasures.

Till of late years, the term for which a
grant for joint lives or the grant of a reversion
has been made has been either for life, or what
in practice practical effect is scarce distinguishable during
what is intend good behaviour, to a to be enjoyed to unless not those
the end of life unless put to a speedier and strong life by judicial sentence

Of a disposition an operation of this sort the mischief
has been seen. Of late means By ingenuity
this species of an improvement has been made
in this species of misrule. Instead of an estate a high
interest the interest granted in this way has
been the occupation estate at will an estate determinable at any time determinable at pleasure.
Despotism the increase of Corruption in an improved<add>a stronger</add>and more efficient form is from than the improvement that he has
been added to waste dissipation

By a grant for life whether in possession

further benefit from the same quarter the situation in which the
source
is placed on
left in on of independence. To a grant for life
substitute a grant during pleasure the condition he
dependence is substituted to independence and free
agency is gone. and the granter himself if he be in
Parliament or if not his parliamentary relative friend for whose sake on whose account
the office good thing was bestowed upon him are remain during the
continuance of such pleasure fast bound harnissed together in the
under the yoke means of influence.
